Career Edge


Since 1996, Career Edge has worked closely with over 900 employers to provide meaningful entry-level work experience for more than 6,500 young Canadians across the full spectrum of Canada’s business community. Within a few months of completing the internships, nearly 80% find permanent jobs at competitive salaries with 60% of these jobs in the intern’s own host organization.

Career Edge offers six, nine or 12-month paid internships for university and college graduates in a variety of fields, including information technology, marketing, human resources and finance. Hosting a Career Edge intern is a cost-effective way for organizations to benefit from skilled, enthusiastic graduates and help develop Canada’s future business professionals.

For employers that host interns, Career Edge provides:

  • Immediate access to a dynamic talent pool of tomorrow’s business professionals.
  • A low-risk way to “test the waters” prior to a permanent job offer.
  • The flexibility to get work done by enthusiastic interns without increasing the staff head-count.
  • The services of interns at lower direct costs than full-time employment, without the paperwork of traditional recruiting methods.

For interns, Career Edge helps them:

  • Break through the frustrating cycle of "no experience, no job – no job, no experience".
  • Get their foot in the door of a great organization.
  • Build their experience and professional network while earning a standard Career Edge stipend.
